Open Data and the transparency of the lists of beneficiaries of EU Regional P...OpenCoesione
This document discusses open data and transparency regarding lists of beneficiaries of EU regional policy funding. It summarizes the results of surveys conducted in 2010-2012 that evaluated how openly and usefully different EU countries and regions published this funding data. The surveys found three main strategies for publishing the data and that over time more regions/countries shifted towards a balanced approach considering both data openness and usability. Open questions remain regarding factors influencing transparency and how to best promote civic engagement with the data.
This document provides an overview of the EEI Platform activities and instruments to be executed in 2010. This document is publicly available for any organization interested in and involved in electronic billing (e-billing), e-invoicing (e-invoicing), automated invoice processing and credit management in all its aspects.
This version provides an overview of eligible activities and instruments in 2010 on January 20, 2010. New developments in activities and instruments will lead to a modified version of the activity plan during the remaining of 2010.
The purpose of this document, its activities and instruments is to achieve the objectives determined by the EEI Platform. It is intended to effectively realise the proposed activities and instruments as much as possible, in tune with the participants of the EEI Platform and also in tune with other partners and stakeholders in the field of e-billing, e-invoicing and automated invoice processing.
The first section of this document primarily addresses the mission and positioning of the EEI Platform towards e-invoicing and invoice automation. This section also discusses the differentiation of the activities and instruments into four segments. Section 3 provides an extensive explanation of these segments.
Section 2 deals -in alphabetical order- with the activities and instruments that are scheduled to be executed using the 'SMART’ method. Therefore, the section starts with an explanation of the 'SMART' Framework.
Presentation given by Georgia at the Service Design and Delivery in a Digital Age - Academies for EaP countries organised by the SIGMA Programme and the GiZ Eastern Partnership Regional Fund. Topic 4: Gathering user insights and feedback.
This document summarizes a synergy report for the MY-WAY project. The report examines the needs of targeted young adults for web entrepreneurship support across Europe. It analyzes the current level of support from student support centers and identifies 11 capability gaps. These gaps include the structure and role of support centers, organization of support services, and availability of specific support like mentoring and funding. The report provides recommendations to address these gaps, such as e-mentoring and enhanced collaboration between support centers. It concludes that connecting support centers can help strengthen Europe's web entrepreneurship ecosystem for young people.

This document provides an overview of open government data, including:
- Definitions of open data, open government data, and linked data and how they relate. Open government data is data produced by the government that can be freely used, reused and redistributed.
- Expected benefits of open government data include increased transparency, releasing social and commercial value from the data, and enabling more participatory governance.
- Linked open government data follows principles of using URIs, providing data over HTTP, and including links between datasets to enable discovery and integration.
- European and UK policies aim to unlock the potential of open data through legal and non-legislative measures like national open data portals.

The document discusses the evolution of open banking into open finance in the UK and Europe. Open banking has grown significantly since its introduction through regulation, with billions of API calls enabling new financial products and services for millions of customers. There is now interest in expanding open banking into open finance by increasing access to broader financial data across sectors, with the goal of improving consumer outcomes through greater competition and innovation. International bodies are also working to develop open finance standards beyond payments and banking at a European level.
The linked open government data and metadata lifecycleOpen Data Support
This document discusses the lifecycle of linked open government data and metadata. It begins by examining existing data and metadata lifecycles, noting that they primarily focus on the supply side. It then presents a hybrid lifecycle model that includes both supply and demand sides. The supply side covers the selection, modeling, publishing and linking of data and metadata by governments. The demand side involves finding, integrating, reusing and providing feedback on open data by consumers. The document also provides best practices for publishing data and metadata at various stages of the lifecycle.
This webinar introduces the first call for applications to the Data Pitch program, which provides funding of up to €100,000 for 6-month business accelerator programs centered on data innovation. The webinar describes the Data Pitch program and application process, including three tracks for proposals, eligibility requirements, evaluation criteria, and tips for developing competitive applications. Representatives were available to answer questions from applicants about the funding opportunity.
The document discusses how open data is becoming more widely adopted in business. It notes that as data technology evolves, companies are finding value in making some of their data open as it allows other businesses to build complementary products and services. This openness can enhance the original companies' businesses. The document outlines three main groups adopting open data: governments, companies sharing select data to enhance performance, and companies sharing transaction data with customers. It describes benefits such as improved customer insights, opportunities to create business ecosystems, and meeting growing customer expectations around access to their transaction information.
The document provides an overview of the Open Data Interoperability Platform (ODIP) and the DCAT Application Profile, which are tools aimed at promoting the reuse of open government data across Europe. ODIP allows data to be uniformly searched and discovered across different data portals. The DCAT Application Profile establishes a common vocabulary for describing datasets, based on the Data Catalog Vocabulary, to increase discoverability and reuse of data. It was developed by an international working group involving data portals and institutions across Europe.
Accounting For Trust In Governmental Reporting Research ReportKate Campbell
This research report summarizes a study investigating how to enhance user trust in UK governmental reporting. It identifies the changing landscape of governmental reporting users to include expert intermediaries in addition to non-expert citizens and politicians. The study aimed to learn more about user needs by conducting interviews and examining accessibility, understandability, and risk reporting practices. Key findings indicate users want improved data accessibility and understandability. The report provides recommendations for digital strategies and cooperation with stakeholders. It also recommends enhancing risk reporting practices to build user trust by clearly presenting risks, standardizing formats, and linking risks to plans and priorities. Overall, the report examines how to improve governmental reporting as a communication tool for building trust between government and users.
Introducing and implementing the EUCIP Core training programme can only be efficient and successful if young professionals completing the training have a chance to be employed not only in Europe but also in Hungary. In the framework of the I-TShape project, the Pest County Foundation for Enterprise Promotion (PFEP) undertook to survey Hungarian stakeholders of the economy to assess the infrastructural background of various businesses, the status of this infrastructure, the conditions of its operation and the expectations towards professionals who operate and develop it. The results and conclusions of the survey are important for us, as we can use them in designing a training programme tailored to the needs of the Hungarian market demands that and then integrating it into the vocational training system in Hungary.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.

ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

End-to-end pipeline agility - Berlin Buzzwords 2024Lars Albertsson
We describe how we achieve high change agility in data engineering by eliminating the fear of breaking downstream data pipelines through end-to-end pipeline testing, and by using schema metaprogramming to safely eliminate boilerplate involved in changes that affect whole pipelines.
A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.
The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Connecting open data for solving the fiscal
transparency puzzle in the EU
Data & Analytics
2. Achieving Open Data objectives is more complex than expected
Create value for the
user community
It’s about quality
…not quantity
Fundamental
drivers of open data
▪ Transparent administration
▪ New business models
4. Looking into the case of EU fiscal data, including the EU Budget
and the Financial Transparency System
5. It’s much more than putting the data online
Understand-
ability
Terminology and
structure are difficult
to understand.
Understanding how
the data has been
created.
Scattered
information
EU Budget, MFF,
FTS, etc. The pieces
need to be connected.
Low usability
& interoper-
ability
Data is not
interpreted in the
same way, e.g. FTS
data is not exactly
spending data.
Data is not in the
right format, has no
licence, or is not
machine-readable.
Meeting users
needs &
expectations
in terms of access,
format, focus,
granularity, etc.
Answering the
burning questions,
and presenting data
in the right way.
Quality
Data is of uncertain
quality, timeliness or
provenance.
The users cannot trust it.
In cases such as the EU
Budget, there’s no room
for mistakes, because of
political implications.
6. Connecting data and telling stories around it
Harmonised
vocabularies
and codelists
Dissemination
vocabularies & data
dictionaries, e.g. for
the MFF, that help
express the meaning
of the data and is
made openly
available, and is
implemented in the
data production
systems.
Linked
datasets
... connecting data
from different
sources to build a
complete picture, in
this case EU Budget,
spending, FTS,
company registers…
Data as a
service
Allow users to query
and retrieve the right
data at the right time
in the right format,
ideally from one
point of access.
Story telling
Engaging the users
not only for making
sure that the right
data is available, but
also for identifying
the right questions
and creating stories
from the data
Manage the
data lifecycle
Putting once the data
online is not
enough…make sure that
your data is kept fresh,
and continuously
improved.
